Roberts 34 – 1985 - ‘Misty Blue’
Information on the Roberts 34: http://www.bruceroberts.com (picture is from this website)
34-ft Sloop rigged sailing vessel. Fiberglass construction. In addition to being pretty, this boat is solidly built with hand laid moulded C-Flex fiberglass mat material and resin. She completed the "Loop" from Georgian Bay to Chicago, down the rivers to Mobile Alabama, around Florida and to the Bahamas, then up the east coast (mostly on the outside), and up the Hudson River, Erie Canal, and Trent-Severn Waterway back to Georgian Bay.
 Before beginning the trip, we did extensive upgrades, including treating the bottom with epoxy and 5 coats of Interprotect.
